After updating the Pixel 4 XL, I stopped calling the Recents Screen, in the settings the items for switching gestures to buttons disappear altogether, here is the video and ~ logcat
If I have correctly caught LogCat, then this is the reason why the items in my settings disappear:

P.S. I was able to return 3 buttons, but clicking on the square is also not called “recently”, and the elements in the settings disappear
P. S. The unsuccessful rollback of Bliss Launcher from the previous installed firmware version helped, in my case e-1.20-s-20240220382012-stable-coral and the Bliss Launcher version 1.18.0, although the rollback failed, but the recents screen somehow worked, but the menu items also disappear
